You might have to enable the grant on respawn option. I remember something weird i had with this setup tbh months ago in the end i just used the team settings device works every time.

You can also use a item granter.

Hey thanks for the reply, yes there are a few workarounds with other devices. I see this bug since years tho and i thought I should finally report it. Even with these workarounds would be much cleaner if that simply gets fixed.

In the recent past after launching a session (Auto Start Game enabled) - I’ve needed to 'End Game" and then Start the game again for this to work.

Does it give you the item when you do that?
